Is there a way I can set up using a monitor and a TV at the same time with my Gainward GF2 Pro? I'd like to have something set up as to where I could play Q3 on my monitor and control Winamp, etc, on my TV. Is it possible, and how do I do it?

You can do that on a Matrox DualHead card, but the 3D isn't as fast.

That or, according to rumor, you can wait a bit and get something "bright" :)

You would need either a dual head graphics card OR get another GPU PCI and then it would be possible, maybe.

I say maybe cause in my experience when playing games with a multi GPU setup, the secondary monitor(s) become useless.

GF arn't dual monitor ready, only the GF MXs are.
Get a Radeon 7500 or 8500, they are dual monitor ready. You could use monitor + tv or monitor + monitor.
